@pluralistic - I expect Carney's answer to this is going to be the same answer as before:
Say a lot of things and then make new trade deals outside the US.
He talked... Today? Yesterday? About intensive trade negotiations with the EU coming this fall, and I would bet on his existing deal with China (the Canola and EVs one) and many other places getting revisited for expansion, too.
"True Carneyism has never been tried – especially by Carney. It's long past time someone gave it a go"...
Oh boy my country deifintely needs to (México).
